The Hyksos were a foreign people who invaded Egypt around 1600 BCE. They had better weapons and transportation, as in curved swords and daggers, and Horse-drawn chariots. They occupied Lower Egypt in the Nile Delta area; and were from Canaan.
Pharaoh Ahmoses Nebpehtyra I (M7) was a Theban Prince of Egypt in Upper Egypt to the south Nile basin. He and his Generals learned how to use Hyksos technology against their oppressors, and liberated Egypt from the Hyksos; Ahmose later founded the 18th Dynasty. The story of Ahmose influenced the Torah story of the Exodus, as led by "Moses." Moses was a Prince of Egypt who was related to slaves in Egypt and liberated them from servitude by using (Egyptian) Magic. Amen is mentioned in all Hebrew prayers because Amen was the god of liberation whom Ahmoses prayed to when liberating Egypt from the Hyksos; it later became the State god AmonRa in gratitude. The Hyksos were chased out of Egypt by Chariots of their own design into Canaan; Pharaoh Thutmose 3 - a descendant of Ahmoses - was the first to discover Israel in his Asian conquests. So Israel was founded after Ahmoses purged Egypt from the Hyksos. Israel waited to publicize their religion until Ramses the Great was King so as to smear Egyptian honor with this religion in revenge for being forced out of the country.
